A collector of antique jewelry since age seven, Olivia Collings is widely respected for her keen eye and excellent taste. Collings is perhaps best known for her selection of Georgian finery, some dating back to as far as 1700. Often used as a way for gentlemen to secretly communicate with their ladies, these acrostic pieces combine the first letter of each featured gemstone to convey a hidden message. A ring set with a diamond, emerald, amethyst and ruby signals the wearer as being most “dear.” Truly the world’s most original love letter.
